    Thanks for this information! I just started researching how to start a nonprofit and happened upon this video. There's a lot of verbiage in this video I'm unfamiliar with and I'm kind of intimidated by all of this, but I have dreamed for years to open up a home for homeless women and after several years of working in a nonprofit, I know that the dream is achievable and necessary. Now it's time to get to work!

    So how do you hire staff for the non profit? Who pays for the salaries?

    • @NicoleMatthew66
      @NicoleMatthew66 Год назад +6

      When hiring staff for a nonprofit organization, it's important to consider the source of funding for the salaries. Most often, nonprofits rely on a combination of funding sources, such as grants, donations, and government contracts. The source of funding will determine how the salaries are paid. For example, if the salaries are paid through a grant, the grantor may specify how the funds should be used, including how much can be used for staff salaries. Alternatively, if the salaries are paid through donations, the nonprofit may have a budget that allocates a certain amount for staff salaries. Is this making sense?

    I'm interested in starting a non profit to to research regarding islands being flooded by sea level rise. If I did form such a non profit it would be doing work outside the US. I'm wondering if there are different rules for non profits that work internationally.

    • @HowtostartanllcOfficial
      @HowtostartanllcOfficial  3 года назад

      Generally, no. There are no special rules. A nonprofit organization conducting activities outside the U.S. is subject to the same U.S. laws as one operating at home, provided that the nonprofit is formed and based in the U.S. However, such organizations should comply with the laws of the foreign countries.

    Lets say I wanted to start a home based business that sells a product. Lets say I want to donate a % of profits to my state's Foster care families. Would forming a 501c3 be recommended, or would the donations be simple tax write off on a LLC? Any guidance is appreciated.

    • @HowtostartanllcOfficial
      @HowtostartanllcOfficial  Год назад

      An organization will only be granted 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status if it is operated exclusively for exempt purposes, such as the provision of charity, and none of its earnings go to any private individual. The organization’s aim must be to provide a benefit to the public.
      Naturally, a for-profit organization is free to make donations to individuals. However, those donations will not be tax-deductible unless the individuals have tax-exempt status. Gifts to individuals are not tax-deductible.

      @HowtostartanllcOfficial  3 года назад +1

      Hi Dee! Articles of Organization are generally used for LLC formation while Articles of Incorporation are for forming a Corporation. The concept between these two documents is the same, you need these documents as part of starting your business as a legal entity.

    • @HowtostartanllcOfficial
      @HowtostartanllcOfficial  2 года назад +1

      An application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code requires submission of IRS Form 1023, the general instructions of which state “Don't enter social security numbers on this form or any attachments because the IRS is required to disclose approved exemption applications and information returns.” That being said, the grant writer might need the SSN for another reason. We recommend asking more specifically why it is needed.

    WOULD IT still have a good chance to be APPROVED??

      @HowtostartanllcOfficial  Год назад

      The Streamlined Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code made on Form 1023-EZ does not generally require you to have already conducted previous activity. Having said that, we recommend talking to a specialized business attorney in order to ensure you are getting the most up-to-date information when it comes to your business's registration.

      A paralyzed person can certainly run and operate a non-profit organization and we'd love to help point you in the right direction!
      Bear in mind the words of Stephen Hawking: “Disability need not be an obstacle to success.”
      President Roosevelt became paralyzed after contracting polio at the age of 39. That must be a lot more challenging than running a non-profit. However, it didn’t stop him from being the longest serving president of the United States.
      More recently, Wesley Hamilton founded Disabled But Not Really (DBNR) after being shot twice in the abdomen and paralyzed in 2010. His non-profit provides equal access to the underserved disabled community through fitness, wellness, and mental health.
